AutoSampler 1.5

AutoSampler is the revolutionary software dedicated to the automatic advanced sampling of hardware and virtual synths.
AutoSampler creates ready to play Exs24 instruments just by connecting your mac to your synth. The more advanced features let you create instruments that switch/fade between keymaps sampled with varying synthesis parameters, and instruments sampled from multiple sound sources through vector envelopes. At the end of this process, ready-to-play Exs24 instruments and samples are automatically created with no need to edit anything.
Main features:
- Multisample multivelocity sampling of midi synth patches in an automated unattended way from external synth devices. You can set the number of velocity levels to be sampled, the key range and the key step to use for sampling (every 1 semitone, every 2 semitones, etc....). Its also possible to sample virtual instruments, through the use of an appropriate host as Logic.
- Multidimensional sampling: you can sample and create Exs24 instruments that switch/fade between keymaps sampled with varying synthesis parameters. This kind of sampling is dedicated to reproducing the special dynamic synthesis nuances of the original sound source (physical modelling paramters, special filters, etc..) from your master keyboard knobs.
- Creates ready-to-play Exs24 instruments without requiring specific user action/editing.
- Midi layers sampling mode for advanced sound design: you can multisample (even multidimensionally) a sound generated by mixing multiple synths. Each sound source has an independent user definable midi volume/expression graphic envelope and transpose parameter for compositing the desired sound.
- Randomize and tweak functions for creating/modifying the envelopes.
- Automatic sampling with specific normalization modes, limiter, truncation, trimming, audio overload protection, release time detection (so that created instruments are already set to the proper release time), custom velocity maps
- Support for sampling midified acoustic pianos and noisy sources (new in 1.1)
- Support for noiseless sustain pedal sampling of midified acoustic pianos (new in 1.1)
- Can sample whole banks of synth patches
- Imports patch names from normal text files (which can be created by cut/paste from SoundDiver)
- Integrated virtual keyboard and bidimensional virtual controller pad
- Comprehensive log file generation with embedded graphical snapshots for each sample, exportable in rich text file format and viewable in a dedicated window
- Standalone software for OSX 10.3.9 or later
- Universal Binary optimized both for Power PC and for Intel.
Version restrictions:
- Only the middle octave C note will be sampled
- samplea are truncated at 1.5 seconds
- maximum sample rate is 44.1Khz
- samples are saved in 16 bit format only.
Enhancements:
- Universal binary optimized both for Power PC and Intel Mac computers.
